Corpus Linguistics for Korean Language Learning and Teaching
ed. by Robert Bley-Vroman; Hyunsook Ko
NFLRC Monographs
Distributed for the National Foreign Language Resource Center
Dramatic advances in personal computer technology have given language teachers access to vast quantities of machine-readable text, which can be analyzed with a view toward improving the basis of language instruction. Corpus linguistics provides analytic techniques and practical tools for studying language in use. This volume includes both an introductory framework for the use of corpus linguistics for language teaching and examples of its application for Korean teaching and leaning. The collected papers cover topics in Korean syntax, lexicon, discourse, and second language acquisition research, always with a focus on application in the classroom. An overview of Korean corpus linguistics tools and available Korean corpora is also included.

Hyunsook Ko is a PhD candidate in the Department of Second Language Studies at the University of Hawai‘i.
